mmmm, nice. my favourite part is the TippEx number plate; surely next seasons accessory.

someone has obviously put some effort in though, arguably in the wrong places but still, effort none-the-less.

Built in Germany, f**ked over in London. Sad end to what was probably a decent car.  :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
Title: Re: Embarasing Mk3 on ebay
Post by: Britman on 10 October 2007, 04:16
i know the types that will buy it :rolleyes:

that is a seriously ugly front bumper, its jsut looks very oddly proportioned alround and has not modified skirts etc

most body kits look bad but thats an abomination

i only like smoothed bodykits really, all these weired designs looks so sh!t all angled look bad enough on novas saxos etc
Title: Re: Embarasing Mk3 on ebay

8v engines arent the most attractive engine in the world but his looks bloody awful

the whole engine bay looks like someone took a massive dump in it and on the rest of the car as well

Title: Re: Embarasing Mk3 on ebay
Post by: DaveGTiMK on 10 October 2007, 09:56

Have you seen under his ad where it says 'BAD BITS' the second one:

'NEEDS MINOR BODYWORK - SEE PICTURES OR COME AND HAVE A LOOK IN PERSON'

Don't know about minor more like major surgery's needed here and I certainly don't need to go and have look in person I can see from the pictures that you've got no idea whats going on in your head.

I've gotta ask a question :grin:
Title: Re: Embarasing Mk3 on ebay
Post by: firstgolfgti on 10 October 2007, 10:01

Post by: DaveGTiMK on 10 October 2007, 10:16

Post by: Guy on 10 October 2007, 13:36
the silly tw@t is removing bids without prior viewings due to timeswasters... so he's only go to £100 and he was up to £310 last night...  tempted to ask what the gaiter is made from... a tesco bag sprayed black or a bin liner?
Title: Re: Embarasing Mk3 on ebay
Post by: DaveGTiMK on 10 October 2007, 13:42
all it needs to make good is....

Filler, lots of it.
new front bumper
new bonnet
re-spray
engine steam/paint/clean/rip it out and put a new one in.
new interior and re-trim

O sod it, all he really needs is this:
1 box of matches and a pint of petrol  :evil:

Surely it's worth spending a hundred quid on, if only to drive it into a wall just for sh!ts and giggles, or maybe off a cliff......

Endless possibilities

That is hideous, why do people do this to their car?  I'd like to have an in depth chat to one of these guys and see what their mentality is like.  Surely you must feel some sort of embarassment to be driving around in that?

An in depth chat what makes you think these guys know how to do that they will probably just grunt back at you.. :grin:

I have seen worse round maidstone so bad you can't tell what make of car it is or was. There use to be a page on the Top Gear website of shocking customized motors real bad.
